★★★★★
Good app. IDK what all the hate is. I can talk to friends privately, but when something bad happens to my chromebook my parents can always ask me what it is, and fix it. Overall 4/5 i just don't like being monitored, but that isn't my fault.
★★★★★
Please consider why the review ratings are low and read who leaves the reviews- because it works and kids hate that they can't get into things they shouldn't. How dare parents monitor their own child's online activity. It's not invasion of privacy, it's called being a parent and as a parent I am so grateful to finally find a resource that helps me protect and monitor my children in the slew of dangerous options out there on the big wide web. I don't need my child have access to every corner of the internet or have every person out there having access to them. Thank you Bark. Trying to work through all the technicalities and updates and just the challenge of monitoring multiple devices and emails with school laptop needs does make it a pain at times to keep current but I’m giving it a 5 still for its efforts to stay on top of it and provide good resources and service.
★★☆☆☆
This is a such a stupid app. You claim to be against being a helicopter parent and being intrusive, but this is literally supporting it. You give absolutely no privacy to the child whatsoever. Parents reading this, this will make your children turn on you faster than a wheelchair without brakes going downhill. It's a sure fire way to get thrown in a home and have your children never visit you. Bark, you have ruined so many kids lives. They will find loopholes and do more damage than good
★★☆☆☆
As I am a teen my mother has this on my phone and laptop and I feel as I cannot be myself as scared that bark will tell my mom something about me, i didn't want her to know such as my sexuality, drama,friends, feelings...etc. In a kids head this app scares them in my head its like I have to watch my every move I can't even say LMAO or lmao, and it will tell my mom just because it has the A word in it. This app just scares your kids and teenagers and worries them this is coming from me and a 16 yr old
